Wyeast | 3056 Bavarian Wheat Blend | Beer Yeast | Activator Smack-Pack System™ | 100 Billion Cells

• 3056 is a proprietary blend of a top-fermenting neutral ale strain and a Bavarian wheat strain
• A great choice when a subtle German style wheat beer is desired
• Activator Smack-Pack System™ "proofs" the yeast and shortens lag time when it hits your wort
• When smacked, the Activator™ packet releases sugars and nutrients to initiate the culture's metabolism
• Wyeast has been a pioneer in craft brewing for over 35 years and is committed to creating the finest fermentation products available
• Although beneficial, cultures do not need to be activated prior to inoculation

We brewed a batch with this yeast strain and entered it in to competition.  The batch took both first and second place, one with lacto and one without.  This provides a well balanced wheat beer.  If the 3068 strain is a bit too much for you in the estery - ripe banana direction, then this should suite you nicely.  

This proprietary blend of a top-fermenting neutral ale strain and a Bavarian wheat strain is a great choice when a subtle German style wheat beer is desired. The complex esters and phenolics from the wheat strain are nicely softened and balanced by the neutral ale strain.

For best results we always recommend ordering an ice pack with your liquid yeast.

Please Note: When choosing an ice pack option beware that the liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped together. Ice packs and insulated mailing options are designed to keep the yeast colder for longer during shipment, but they will not ensure that your yeast arrives cold. We will not replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. During warmer months we strongly recommend you choose dry yeast.
